1. Noah Long Noah Long 5'10" | 175 lbs | RB Liberty Hill | 2024 State TX (SO-RB) – Liberty Hill High School (Liberty Hill, TX)
Stats: 243 rushing yards, 2 rushing touchdowns
Long has torn up the field and the scoreboard all season and this game was no different. He simply could not be stopped. He saw a lot of reps with Liberty Hill only throwing the ball once all game but he definitely took advantage of that. Long is one of the best running backs in Central Texas and as Liberty Hill edges closer to the state title, the nation will see that as well.
2. Grady Flinn (SR-RB) – Liberty Hill High School (Liberty Hill, TX)
Stats:134 rushing yards, 2 rushing touchdowns
Although he did not put up the same amount of yards as Long, Flinn did score just as much. Flinn was also all over the field and averaged 8.4 yards per carry. As a senior, Flinn truly showed any scouts attending the game what he is worth and put up the numbers he did behind Long. Flinn is an explosive talent and is capable of greatness.
3. Joe Pitchford (SO-QB) – Liberty Hill High School (Liberty Hill, TX)
Stats: 120 rushing yards, 1 rushing touchdown
He threw only pass in the game, which resulted in an incompletion, but he really showcased his mobility. The numbers he put up are usually done by running backs but he made the defense pay.
